stevebrum 6,819 Posted November 23, 2017 But is the tactical only once ???? I have seen nothing put out by the BSPA saying only once in a meeting. There have been forum contributors who have had their own comment on it being only once (they think) but pls let me know where it has been formalised as only once. The BSPA announcement said: TACTICAL SUBS: Black and White double points replaced with tactical substitution permitted in heats 5 to 14 (excluding heat 8) when a team is 6 points or more behind. For clarity there are NO double points. Would be good to get some formal clarification on it. Would be good if it said it can be used more than once and each rider can only have one tactical ride from the main team. Like many other things not known for sure like rider assessed GSA if they rode before 2016 or what young riders say 21 or under who have never ridden UK will be assessed at. Exactly. Nothing has been confirmed if it's one or several. Unless anyone can point me to the part in the rules that confirm it. Pure speculation at this stage it seems.

Pure speculation at this stage it seems. Should be as many as you like whilst still 6 behind, limited to one t/s per rider, although I wouldn't include ht14 as the make up is similar to the excluded ht8, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordon Pairman has already answered the question, it's once only. http://www.speedway-...dpost&p=3058705 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wolfsbane 12,944 Posted November 23, 2017 Don't know why we would want Manzares, never done a lot and only 4th in American Championship, says it all No problem. Any better from you or do we stick with Riss Snr on 4.69? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Flag 454 Posted November 24, 2017 No problem. Any better from you or do we stick with Riss Snr on 4.69? I certainly think there is improvement in Mark Riss, just personnel preference but I never rated Manzares,never really cut it at Ipswich and can't see that been away for 2 years has improved him any Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
